History edit
The sub-district originally was part of Tha Pla District. With the creation of the Sirikit Dam in 1972, the sub-district has become separated from the central part of Tha Pla District. Effective 14 February 2015, the sub-district was reassigned to Nam Pat District to make the authorities easier to reach for the local residents.[2]
